HERE ARE SOME ISSUES THAT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT.

Tyler’s Recommendation…Shade The Changing Girl/Wonder Woman Special #1“So this Milk Wars crossover is one of my new favorite things. If you were on the fence, please climb down, you need to read this series. Fair warning, it will also probably make you start reading the entire Young Animal line, but that is a good thing.”

Tyler’s Recommendations…Captain America #695
“I don’t have very strong feelings about this whole Marvel legacy thing, but I do have very strong feelings
about Waid, Samnee, and Wilson bringing back the true Cap. I’m very excited for this team to bring Steve back, and everyone should
be picking this up.”

Josh’s Recommendation…Justice League Of America The Atom Rebirth #1 “Call me crazy, something just fascinates me about a hero who shrinks down to microscopic size.

Pat proposes that Poppovich run for president in 2020 on the democratic ticket which was also proposed by Jade Wilson on the True Hoop podcast last Friday. Could we be on to something? The guys also talk some comics as that’s what they do, specifically all new series debut’s from the week. Debut’s like Mother Panic, Avengers 1.1, World of Wakanda, Violent Love & Namesake.

Tyler’s Recommendation …Motor Girl #1“Terry Moore has a new series, so if you know what’s good you’ll check this out. I’m a big fan Mr. Moore, so my excitement is high for this. The series is on the sci-fi spectrum, with aliens, a talking gorilla, and some G-men trying to ruin everything. Guaranteed to have gorgeous art and engaging characters, you should all give this one a chance!”

Tyler’s Recommendations …Cave Carson Has A Cybernetic Eye #1“The wild, 1950’s sci-fi premise of this was enough to convince me to check this out. Add to that a fantastic creative team in Way and Avon Oeming, and we have ourselves an exciting new comic from the Young Animal imprint.”

With DC Rebirth, and the promotion of Geoff Johns to co-chair of the DC Cinematic Universe, the company has pledged to return to its roots of “Hope, Optimism, and Legacy” While that is all fine and Jim dandy, it strikes me as coming pretty late when you consider the story Kingdom Come. One of DC’s most classic series of it’s era by Mark Waid and Alex Ross, the comic could’ve saved DC a lot of trouble had they considered that story as the template to follow instead of Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns.
